On April 16, between 2:25 P.M. ET and 4:12 P.M. ET, the domain zoom.us was not available due to a server block by GoDaddy Registry. This block was the result of a communication error between Zoom’s domain registrar, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy Registry, which resulted in GoDaddy Registry mistakenly shutting down zoom.us domain. Zoom, Markmonitor, and GoDaddy worked quickly to identify and remove the block, which restored service to the domain zoom.us. There was no product, security or network failure at Zoom during the outage. GoDaddy and Markmonitor are working together to prevent this from happening again.

Small Black Rectangles appears on Video Feed

Since a recent zoom update about 2-3 weeks ago, I've got small black rectangles that appear on the videos of other people on my zoom calls and webinars.    My video looks fine.   Please see the attached file to see what I'm talking about.   I've updated zoom to last version.  Still same result.     Any ideas how to fix this?

I'm experiencing the exact same issue. Same little black dots on video from other people, but mine looks fine. I don't have any solution ideas, but hopefully my "ditto" might raise this up to catch someone's attention who can help.

Oh, hey I was digging around more in the zoom community posts and came across a solution for this. Doesn't necessarily work for everyone, but it worked for me. Change the Video Rendering Method in Advance settings. The post I found said to select GDI, but for me Direct3D11 Flip Mode produced a sharper video feed. Experiment with those settings and see if anything there works for you.
